BRANCHES TO BE NON-DORMITORY JUNIOR COLLEGES

During the discussion of the site question there had been frequent statements
by the Rector, the President, Judge Smith, and several others emphasizing the
conception of University branches as junior colleges without dormitories.

Upon motion of Mr. Berkeley, seconded by Judge Smith, the following resolution
was unanimously adopted

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia that the
Board wishes to record its deep conviction that the Northern Virginia College and
all other branch colleges now existing or that may be established in future as
colleges of the University of Virginia ought to be non-residential colleges limited
to the first two years of undergraduate work.

On motion the meeting was then adjourned.
